Storm & Flood Damage Recovery in Beaufort, SC
From wind-driven rain to flash flooding, crews board up, extract, and dry the structure, then document everything for the claim. Storm and flood recovery starts with extraction and structural drying, then documenting the loss for an insurance or flood claim. Because floodwater carries soil and debris, affected porous materials are removed rather than dried, and the structure is re-checked as it dries.

Frequently asked questions
The house is on piers. Is river flooding still the issue?
Not the main one. The marsh and the tide set the water table, and an August squall raises both from the estuary side. A crawlspace over peat can wet from below with the Beaufort River looking ordinary from the bridge. Overbank flow is the obvious event; tidal groundwater is the standing one.
What is tabby doing in a wall that keeps staining?
Wicking. Tabby is lime and shell, and it takes water like a sponge. Tide in the fill below keeps it charged, and a stain at the base is often that capillary path rather than a roof leak. Coating the inside will not break a path that starts in the shell.
We close the cottage from May to October. Does that change the job?
It makes a small wet into a large one. August is the peak, and a closed crawlspace over marsh peat holds whatever the tide puts in. Opening it in November then shows a season of moisture that a winter occupant would have vented week by week.
